The Paranza

I fell in love with a bitch
it requires patience
but I ran out of it.
A cupboard would have been better
some deep-fried trawler's catch,1
trawler
trawler.
 
The paranza is a dance
that originated on the island of Ponza
where - without competition -
became popular with the entire citizenship.
It's a dance, but some argue
it represents the desertion of a bitch
from the calvary to the departure
until the final cry of jubilation.
 
Men, men, there's still hope
before an action ruins your life
before a judge summons you for the hearing
I suggest a change of address.
Then, you only need a little patience
a few months and no one notices the absence anymore
Distance is the cure against all evils
and then you take comfort in the paranza.
 
The paranza is a dance
you dance while on the run
with prudence, elegance
and a slow movement of the belly.
 
So from Genoa you can go south to Cosenza
or from Brindisi go north to Brianza
Someone from Cogne will initially move to Taormina
Someone from Trapani? Maybe to Provence
No, no, no, no, it's impossible
it's not recommended
to go back to the starting place
While on the run there are strict rules
and to hold out there's the paranza.
 
The paranza is a dance
you dance while on the run
with prudence, elegance
and a slow movement of the belly.
 
Tell me you love me, you love me
and when you go away
first thing you call me.
Anyway you'd better stay
you'd better wait until tomorrow.
Tell me you care, you care
and if you don't come
you belong to me anyway
and you miss me more than the air you breathe
more than before, more than yesterday.
 
"Where is he? Where is he?"
everyone asks
"Where is he? Where is he?"
but they can't find me.
You know what?
I feel totally fine
as long as I am
on the loose
Also, why
going back to her
given that she always felt
better without me.
They won't catch me
I stay here.
 
The paranza is a dance
you dance while on the run
with prudence, elegance
and a slow movement of the belly.
 
And if I am on the run, on the run
it's not an offence
if you don't know where I live
if I don't go into the details
if I don't act to the detriment
of my fellow men.
We are free men
we are free men
we are comfortable, comfortable
on wicker mats
on beaches in Rimini
on the Bimini atoll
We have been on the run for years
using the same tricks
but you are not really on the run
when you show up for lunch.
